Microsoft has released an announcement trailer along with teasing that a new Gears of War, Halo and Forza games are in development for the Xbox One.

Sea of Thieves will be the first game to join the Xbox Game Pass beginning in March 20th. This will be followed by games like State of Decay 2, Crackdown 3 and more as they are announced at the upcoming E3.

Xbox Game Pass is a monthly as well yearly subscription service. If you are in the mood for getting more than 100 games straight on your Xbox One, you can get the service for $9.99 per month or pay the price of $59.99 for 6 months of the service.
